When the ancestor used to have a blob "P", your tree removed it, and the tree you are merging with also removed it, the agressive three-way cleanly merges to remove that blob. If the other tree added a new blob "P/Q" while removing "P", it should also merge cleanly to remove "P" and create "P/Q" (since neither the ancestor nor your tree could have had it, so it is a typical "created in one"). The "aggressive" rule is not new anymore. Reword the stale comment.
